Volume 20 Number 23

In this issue of EuroIntervention we bring you a debate on the use of routine invasive treatments for elderly patients with acute coronary syndromes. In original research: the use of intravascular lithotripsy-assisted PCI in calcified nodules, an analysis of data from the Disrupt CAD OCT studies; an article assessing coronary atherosclerosis using coronary computed tomography angiography versus near-infrared spectroscopy-intravascular ultrasound for plaque quantification and characterisation; and stenting outcomes after failed basilar artery thrombectomy in acute stroke. There is also a research correspondence on the treatment of outflow graft obstruction after left ventricular assist device implantation using stents; the EAPCI column; and more...
